The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

If you frequently walk on rough terrain, or wish to run, a three-wheel pushchair is the perfect choice. They are ideal if you require a vehicle that can take on any terrain from busy high streets to woodland tracks.

For greater maneuverability, opt for a model with locking or swivelling front wheels. Front and rear wheels that are larger also provide the most comfortable ride on various surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is one of the key benefits of a 3 wheel pushchair. The wheels are set close to each other, which allows the chassis to rotate and turn much more easily than a conventional 4 wheel pushchair, making them ideal for busy streets and shopping. Some even have a pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled for extra maneuverability when needed. The Roma Atlas, for example is equipped with two wheels that are positioned close together in front and a clever lock that can swivel to give the ability to maneuver like three wheels, with added stability.

It is crucial to select the correct wheels for your pushchair depending on where it will be used the most. Moulded wheels are fine for city use but will not be able to handle rougher terrain.
